Регистрационный номер : K4303 [5] A LA MODE: The veil of official secrecy has been partially lifted from the shapely Fairey bomber monoplane, known as the Battle. Its engine is one of the new Rolls-Royce "Merlins"; its covering of metal; its undercarriage semi-retractable; and its performance, if known, a State secret.

The undercarriage of the Fairey Battle retracts upwards and backwards into recesses in the wings. A fairing helps to streamline the uncovered portion of the wheel.

Регистрационный номер : K4303 [5] Single-strut cantilever wheel suspension is a feature of the Fairey Battle. Note the orientable landing lights in the leading edge. The Fairey three-bladed airscrew is of small diameter so that a low undercarriage can be used.

Регистрационный номер : K4303 [5] All control surfaces of the Battle are fabric covered. The rest of the machine has a metal skin. The trimming tabs can be seen on the left, while the other shows a student of design doing poojah to the trailing-edge flaps.

PAN AMERICAN DEBUTANTE. American modernity is the keynote of this view of the first Fairchild Baby Clipper (P. & W. Hornet) moored after its delivery flight to Pan American Airways at the International Airport, Miami. This particular machine will be used between Para and Manaos down the Amazon River.

Points of interest to be seen in this elevation of the Fairchild Baby Clipper include the anchors and drogues in the bow compartment, airscrew guard over the forward hatch, accommodation for passengers and crew, retracting tail wheel and the general compactness of the whole layout. The engine is a 750 h.p. nine-cylinder Hornet radial.

Attention to an engine. The ladders are very light and handy, and are carried on board.
The "kidney" or "ramshorn" type of exhaust system, which gives a noise reduction equal to that obtained with the more usual perforated tail pipes, is standard equipment on certain R.A.F. machines, notably the Handley Page Heyford.Самолёты на фотографии: Handley Page Heyford / H.P.38 / H.P.50 - Великобритания - 1930

Farnborough and Napier engineers collaborated in the design of the exhaust system for the Napier Dagger III engine in the Hawker Hector. The four exhaust units are sunk into troughs, thereby decreasing resistance.

INFRA-DIG: Natives wait behind the hills for hours while R.A.F. machines in Egypt do their gunnery practice. As soon as the shooting has stopped they dash to the targets, grub for bullets in the sand and sell them at two-pence farthing per hundred to dealers. Here is a Vickers Vincent at practice.

The hull of the Saro London. Straight-line frames are used, those in the rear portion, and the sides of those in the front part, being of "Z" section, and the rest of channel section. The planking is corrugated or fluted to avoid the use of riveted-on stringers. Note the neat pressed caps used to cover the ends of the corrugations. Details of the construction of the rear step are shown below.

Регистрационный номер : CF-ARI SALVAGE: This Junkers W.34, owned by Canadian Airways, fell through the ice while taxying near Port Chipewyan and was saved from complete immersion only by the low wing structure. Twelve days were taken in the work of salvage, but comparatively little damage was done.

A diagrammatic view of the Dragonfly's cabin layout, which is extraordinarily spacious. Any of the passengers and/or pilots can change seats in the air without the slightest difficulty. In addition to the main windows, small windows at the rear give the back-seat passengers a view downwards without neck-craning.

Регистрационный номер : VH-AJM A PHOENIX FOR AUSTRALIA: Mr. C. J. Melrose with the Heston Phoenix which he is shortly flying out to Australia in easy stages. This machine is the first of the production batch and incorporates certain improvements, mainly an even better view than before from the pilot's seat and a somewhat neater Dowty retractable undercarriage. Mr. Melrose hopes to carry a few expense-sharing passengers.

Регистрационный номер : G-AAXD A NEW COAT for Horatius in Imperial Airways' workshops being quickly administered by the B.E.N. Patents P.10-type portable spraying plant seen in the foreground. Driven either by an electric motor or small petrol engine this plant is particularly suitable for dope spraying, and is one of the several different types made by B.E.N. Patents Ltd., Gorst Road, Park Royal, London, N.W.10 - who, incidentally, have recently received a Government contract for similar equipment.

Регистрационный номер : G-ADMH [2] THIS ONE FLIES! Remembering the general tendency to be humorous at the expense of the Pou, here is photographic evidence of the fact that the Carden-engined model flies - and flies well. Mr. S. V. Appleby, of course, is the pilot. A reasonable supply of power with careful construction and rigging help to explain its successful performance; one of the rigid incidence control rods can be clearly seen.

Flt. Lt. Schofield has been carrying out extensive flight tests during the last few weeks of General Aircraft's new ten-passenger monoplane. Of all-metal construction, it is fitted with two Pratt and Whitney Wasp Juniors. The photograph brings out the pronounced sweep-back given to the wings; the very low setting of the tailplane on the fuselage is another unusual feature. For this, the first aerial photograph of the S.T.18 to be published, the machine was piloted by Flt. Lt. Schofield, and Mr. Seth Smith handled the S.T.10 which carried Flight's photographer. The medium-supercharged engines ensure good performance at high altitudes and yet in conjunction with the Hamilton C.P. airscrews an excellent take-off. The rearward retracting undercarriage is not the least interesting feature.

IN MINIATURE: An imposing view of the Stinson Model A (three 260 h.p. Lycomings) which has been designed specifically for feeder line operation in America. The rights for this machine, which, in its "export" form, has a fixed undercarriage, have been acquired by Brian Allen Aviation, of Croydon. It is possible that we shall see three Stinsons in operation here in the near future.
